Bamboo Blade 18

That’s because you’ve already made your point, Tama-chan.

And it’s the Raising Heart of the team to the rescue! This arc has been so successful in building up Kirino as an interesting character who is not just captain because of her initial persistence in maintaining the club or even her relatively high level of skill but also because of her stout and loving heart.


LOL when Ishida-sensei mused that kendo isn’t something that you put your life on the line for. Well, nice of him to be so calm and unselfish when it’s his job on the line here. On the other hand, I couldn’t help but think of that English saying about how football (’soccer’ to the Americans) is not a matter of life and death; it’s much more important than that. Also the scene in Azumanga when Nyamo offers to buy juice for her class to reward them for their effort even though they had lost to Yukari’s class, just as they are all cheered up, Yukari goes over and screams at them: Why are you guys so happy!? You’re the loser team! Loser team Make teamu, Make teamuuu~~~!!! Of course, if Konishi had done that, she’d really be obliterated.


Yeah, we know Kirino x Sayako are best friends and not a couple though they are eminently slashable LOL


Ah, the ecstasy and agony of expectation and disappointment. Actually I was talking about myself - I was just waiting for Saya’s guitar string to snap after she strummed a couple of chords!

Like Totali, I’m amused by how many hidden talents the Incredible Dan The Man has. By the end of the series, we’ll probably find out that not only does he have the book smarts, kendo potential, understands women, reserves huge amounts of Black Power, artistic drawing (next will be nude still life), he is also as rich as Nagi and is hung like a horse. OTL

    LOLLLLLLL Dan-kun is like the anti stereotypical male lead of anime. He even has the power to tame Miya Miya…who else could do that!

    Toraji walked a thin line challenging Tamaki’s authority like that.

    Maybe Tamaki needs to remind Toraji by wearing the ‘I AM BOSS’ t-shirt?

    Oh yeah, forgot to add: Other than how I keep going ‘I can’t believe that’s FEITO!’ with Nana Mizuki playing Touma in Minami Ke, I just keep going ‘I can’t believe that’s Kirika/Clare!’ with Houko Kuwashima playing Miya Miya in this series.
